MojaveMike: Rugged individualists and environmentalists and survivalist nutjobs too! All sorts of people like the idea of a self-sufficient desert hideaway! At least until the novelty wears off and then when you realize that even shopping becomes a major hassle, that's about when most people just say to hell with it! That's not to mention building costs and other inconveniences!

It might be kind of lonely living in the middle of nowhere, but the idea of being self-sufficient for the most part is almost intoxicating. If I had the money I might build a remote getaway cabin for long weekends away from the rat race. That's if I had the money!!!
